For a big man,
my brother had
exceptionally small toes.
As a woman,

Though a child,
my daughter
had the air of one who knows
that everyone
has oddities
for others to expose.
For a small world -
and it’s changing
as I’m speaking, as it grows,
There will always
be the ones who
have the high times and the lows.
For a big man,
my uncle had
a very tiny nose………..
